I'd probably keep it. I never really change up GPUs too much. Now if it was a CPU, I'd probably trade up just for something new to play with! But if you're just looking for performance I'd keep what you have. At least you're guaranteed of that speed.

The Sapphire 950mhz Edition HD7950 in North America is very different from other Sapphire HD7950s. It is built on reference HD7970 PCB which is compatible with all reference HD7970 heat sinks and water blocks. It's a very good card. Possibly one of the best designed HD7950s when looking at the reference HD7970 PCB and the well designed PCB heat sinks.

After

Liquid Pro on Die
With the Fujipoly Extreme Thermal Tape

16.5C Ambient Temps

Furmark 15 minute 1920x1050 Burn in Benchmark

my water line to the CPU first then to the GPU. Before I was running directly to the GPU first then the CPU.

Looks like a success. cheers.gif
